That GF 9090

bredgeo - 2009-09-13 12:12

Like all of us.... Every-so-often we take one of our Bboxes and use them (the more we have the less often we use a given Bbox repeatedly.

I just took my GF 9090 off of the self and had it do its thing.

I am stil amazed by the quality sound that little guy has!!!!!!!

I know that I have posted this before... But it has been a good year that I have not used it... IT ROCKS!! Clear highs and good bass, really!!!!!!!!! Nod Yes

For those that do not have a GF 9090, GET ONE!!!! You will NOT be disappointed!

Small but it has it all! Cool

I Agree you will NOT be dissapointed, the 9090 is an exellent starter model, or at least starter model to sharp's exellent GF range.
and the sounds?wow! for a smaller box they are really good! they will go good and loud and with good bass to boot.
my gf9090 is an e model(europe) and finished in gunmetal. its not perfect in condition, but as i say it sounds terriffic. all for £7.50. its what got me into gf's in the first place. ive now got the 9090,525 and a 450- but want more-quickly!!!!!
keep on blastin' your 9090 my old mate Wink

I Agree Wink

Starter model, no way. It's my go-to box, my everyday beater, my day by day letting it play box.
Bought my first one 31 years ago brand new, and while it's a little rough around the edges now, it still sounds sweet.
I can't seem to get enough of the gf-777 right now (too many buttons and knobs to play with Laugh Out Loud) but the 9090 will be waiting...
Just remember andy, it's like ZZ Top says:
"Women go crazy for a Sharp dressed man." Cool

more good Sharp for small money is the GF-9191 in quality and sound. ( it sounds im my ears better then 9494, 9696, 555, 666, 575, 8989, 8787, 9797, 8585 and so on.

I own the 9191, and still happy with it.
Very good unit.

How does the 9090 looks?

yeah folks i hear the 9191 is a sweet machine- who knows what will crop up for me at the carboot in the morning- probably sod all knowing my luck Frown
just had the 9090 on again, and youre right,kenpat- basically you could get away with this as your everyday machine. the main man. how much did you pay for yours back in 77 then?
and i would have to loose a few pounds before women go crazy for me, kenpat Laugh Out Loud

Never heard a 9090, but the 9191 is a very nice box indeed, great sound, very warm and 'classic' without sounding over-bright and 'in-yer-face'.
Excellent tuner too Cool

Sorry for the picture quality, I'm moving my workspace inside from the garage... Red Face



Just a little, clean, "sharp" box... Laugh Out Loud
Does anyone have a link to a parts place that sells DIN plugs? Can't seem to find them locally, and that's the 9090's weakness, a lack of RCA plugs.
